Mira stayed quiet while the others talked, it wasn’t her place right now. The woman before that stated she did a good job with closing the would seemed to still be interested in the boy in her lap. Well, if they were all heroes that made sense, to an extent. She took out some form of ointment and rubbed it along the burn mark. She watched carefully a bit unsure of what exactly that was and because she felt responsible for the boy in her lap. She finally finished applying the salved and offered some leaves stating they would add him in getting energy. Perhaps it was her long time in a desert, but she honestly didn’t know if that was the case. Taking them silently, she nodded and glanced them over a bit unsure. Sure, she had no reason to really not trust the woman, but Mira had a problem when it came to injuries. She felt responsible and normally because a bit possessive.

Her gaze dropped down to the boy in her lap, it wasn’t like he was hard to look at. She wondered once more, what could have caused the wounds and how long he had been traveling like that. Her assumption was that perhaps he wasn’t a hero. It was hard to tell at this point. However, it mattered little. He was injured and there wasn’t going to be a thing that could stop her from making sure he was okay. Her gaze softened while looking at him, a caring smile slid along her lips. She would make sure he was okay. It was just like her village, except no one was making her this time. A small smile slipped along her lips at that thought.

‘My choice.’ It was a simple thought, one that wouldn’t mean much to anyone else but her, but a happy thought. Her thoughts slid away as she felt a gentle clasp on her shoulder. Blinking she glanced up towards the woman and smiled. “Thank you” she stated simply. Her eyes wandered to the rest of the group. They seemed to be getting along just fine, which she supposed was good, but it was a bit strange. Perhaps all heroes trusted a bit too fast? The rather loud man stated that they didn’t have all ten. “The day is young.”She exclaimed simply. “It was only but a day ago when the bells rang.” To much of her surprise he seemed to be excited in battling another of the heroes. “Is that necessary? It seems like a waste of energy and time.” Her voice was a tad bit louder to make sure he could hear her.

Once more, her gaze wandered to the now two beaastkin that were standing there. One was a cat of some sort so a neko and the other had wings so she had to assume some form of bird. It wasn’t uncommon for her to see beastkin, but she had to admit she was a bit shocked to find two as a hero. Then again, the sun goddess did like her beastkin or atleast so the stories say. The neko was silent, seeming embarrassed about something, though she wasn’t sure what. The other was apologizing about being late. “I wouldn’t say late, it’s but morning.” She stated once more. Sure, they were going to save the world or at least try, but you couldn’t expect everyone to show up at the same time. That was unrealistic.

Malachi seemed to have the same idea she did in terms of fighting. She smiled a bit. Good, she wasn’t going to only play mediator the whole time, that wasn’t something she wanted at all. Malachi moved his way over to the neko girl and bird guy and seemed interested in the two. Well, that was nice, but not much of her concern. Finally, her gaze fell once more. This time on the taller elven woman. She seemed proud and competent enough based off her looks and speech pattern, albeit she did appear to be an elf. They did have quit the story surrounding them. Even she had to tell the louder one that fighting wouldn’t be a good idea. A sigh of relief escaped her lips, good, no more mediating.

“So…” Mira started, her right hand falling to rest on the boys shoulder. “How about we introduce ourselves while we wait.” She stated simply and flicked her gaze over to Galahad. “You seem rather boisterous, I’m sure you’d love to spin a tale.”Her voice didn’t seem very amused; perhaps she wasn’t a fan of his booming voice. “You start.”

Mira was seeming to calm down a bit now, as she cleaned away the dried blood. The man who had passed out just moments ago seemed to be a bit more stable, which was good. Her gaze finally lifted from this man to notice there was more around her now. She had managed to clean off most of the blood from his body now. Pleased with herself, she tugged his shirt back down and placed her hand on his arm gently. The first person to catch her attention was a blonde man that walked over seeming to know her name. Her blue eyes focused for a moment, as she didn’t move just to make sure the unconscious man would be comfortable. It took a moment before realization hit her.

Oh that’s right, this was Malachi, it had been many years since she last saw him. She gave a gentle smile. “You learn things when there is no other way.” She stated softly. Malachi moved closer to her and the unconscious man as he touched his neck. She watched carefully wondering what he was doing. He stated what was wrong with him, her gaze dropped back down. You can tell that just by touching someone. That didn’t make sense to her. There were many more people here now, all of which she didn’t know. She would have to assume that meant they were all heroes, but she wasn’t sure.

Another woman walked towards her and glanced down at the man on her lap. She was a bit worried, mostly because she didn’t know who this was. Her hand stayed on his arm as the woman looked over him and stated her seal was rather good. “I’m glad to hear that” her voice was rather silent as she noticed now another man walked over and asked what happened to the man on her lap. She blinked; she could assume this was normal but man she didn’t expect people to ask quite so often. “I’m not sure.” She stated simply.

“We should let him rest.” She exclaimed hoping everyone would give the man some breathing room. The voice in the corner caught her attention as she glanced over at the elf woman who was here when she first arrived. An oracle? Briefly, Mira wondered what the oracles job would be normally. Would she just stay here with the tree until the Harmonize cycle began again? Her gaze dropped back down at the unconscious man. She did wonder what happened to him though…

Peace, this was something she wasn’t use to. Such an odd feeling when almost every moment of your life was claimed by stress, work, or random errands. Her blue gaze drifted along the tree as she took in the splendor of it all. It was just… so big. The tree seemed to be the canvas for almost the entirety of the continent, well, that’s at least what it looked like. It was simply breathtaking to just look at how every branch spread off further than her eye could see. Nature sure was amazing.

Turning slowly, she took a good glance at the woman standing in front of it. She seemed quite pleased as she started to hum a rather happy tune and moved some decorative cord around the base of the tree. This wasn’t something she really understood, but Mira had to assume it was important in some way. Silence fell between them as she wondered which would have to break the silence first; she was never that good at talking.

After a moment, a blonde man seemed to wander in through the thicket seeming dazed by the wonder of the giant tree himself. Well, it was a massive tree, she could hardly blame him. For some reason he looked someone she once knew. Blinking, she gave him a once over, trying desperately to think of why he may look familiar, however shortly after another emerged from the brush. This one was a taller woman, obviously elf by her slender features. She happened to catch the words of the blonde male and added to them.

Her gaze drifted up towards the sky as she wondered about what she said. The heavens? Was that actually a place they could reach? This was a thought that honestly made her wonder. Was it possible? Hearing the woman speak, she smiled. She had a pleasant voice, though it was very polite. It was almost as if she had forgotten why she was here. The heroes were gathering here. Blinking, she nodded, realizing how much of an airhead she had been. “Well met” she started with a rather stern voice, trying to make sure her first impression would be a strong one. “They call me-“

Another person emerged from the brush, as this one seemed a bit jagged in his or her movements. The words she was about to say stuck for a brief moment before she noticed their demeanor just wasn’t right. Tilting her head, she went to take a step forward only to hear the word ‘help’ slip from their lips. Her eyes widened, within a moment she had already moved towards the man. Her body all but carried herself. His body slowly fell towards the ground as she managed just barely to catch his shoulder. Slowly lowering herself to the ground, she pulled the man down with her to look over him. It didn’t take long to notice the blood pooling around her body. Her blue eyes scanned over his body structure trying to find the source of the blood. Noticing almost immediately that his chest was soaked in blood, her hands moved towards his shirt as she muttered a soft “I’m sorry” her hands pushed up his shirt before seeing the gash in his chest.

Panic showed on her face for a moment, before she quickly pulled off her long gloves, tossed them only her legs, and moved the man’s head against her thigh. It was obvious she wasn’t thinking so much about pleasantries but very much thinking about fixing the wound on this mystery man. Her hands moved towards the wound as she gently placed her hands against the blood. Exhaling slowly, her hands seemed to flicker a dull orange, as the blood seemed to harden almost immediately against her touch. Pulling her hands back every so slowly, she moved her hand back to the little pack she had and took one of her gloves. Fishing out what looked to be a makeshift canteen; she poured a bit of water along her one glove and slowly wiped the excess blood away from the wound, concern very evident on her face

The sky above was clear as the boat beneath her feet rocked softly with the waves. It had been a long trip, though she had expected as much. Thankfully, the seas were much kinder to her this time around; it was as if the goddess herself watched over her. Tilting her head back to glance up at the sky, she took a deep breath and exhaled. How were her people doing without her? Would they be able to live? Would they even be able to do anything at all without her there? A small frown spread along her lips as she plopped back down on the little boat. It was too late now; she couldn’t let the entire world suffer because of her small village.

Though…

It wouldn’t stop her from wondering if she did the right thing. The wind around her picked up a bit, seeming to give her another gentle shove towards the evergreen lands of Teth’alla. A bit of time had passed before she had finally managed to skid onto a little beach and hop off onto land. Teth’alla. The first time to another country for a reason, that was her own. She smiled slightly as she looked around at all the trees and vegetation. How different it was compared to what she was used to. The temperature was also quite a bit lower than what she was used to. It was weird.

Glancing around, she noticed a little trail cutting into the wood. She was still quite young so curiosity was quite a big thing for her, especially knowing how the tales of past heroes went. They gathered at Teth’alla, in the heart of the forest, they would know they were at the right place when they would feel the most at peace. Once all the heroes were gathered, they would start their journey to not only clear out the monsters threatening their world but also to cleanse the world of the negativity had reached its peak. Traveling to each continent, they would destroy the seals and find themselves in front of the tower that would mark an end to this time periods Harmonize.

Smiling slightly, she walked down the path. Well, if she was going to find the place she felt most at peace. The thicket in Teth’alla was full of odd vines and flowers she had never seen before. It was like walking into a fantasy garden where everything was just magical and new. Turning to glance around herself, she continued to follow the winding trail until she found herself in front of a giant oak tree and a rather ornate looking woman.

Blinking, Mira took a step forward as a huge sense of relief washed over her immediately. It was immediate feeling as her shoulders sagged a bit in a relaxed state. She felt at peace, it no longer even felt cold to her. Just everything felt, nice. As she stood there taking in the feeling, the woman turned and smiled at her.

╚═══════════╝Armor: Half PlateWeapons: Bastard sword, 2 daggersAbilities:
-Burning Passion– to match her determination, she can manipulate and control fire or heat to an insane extent. Igniting things on fire with a single look is a simple feat for her. The more determined or the more her emotions are high strung, her fire will either burn hotter or grow bigger. Due to her use of fire magic over the years and her people forcing her to use a sword, she is also able to ignite her sword causing flames to flick on the blade or cause a searing sensation.
-Overdrive– is able to kick her body into an overdrive state where she is faster, strong and feels less pain. This lasts for only 30 seconds at a time and can’t be used too often without extreme strain on her body. Special:Ashes to Ashes- With prolonged battle, her stress level will rise as she will slowly stop becoming logical and start becoming more crazed. The limits on her fire magic will seem to stretch endlessly as her skin itself will seem to be at hottest. During this period, her fire will burn blue and at points may be transparent, the hottest point she can manipulate. This will take a great deal of her mana to hold, however midtier monsters will be incinerated into ash almost immediately.

╚══════════════════╝Bio:As a child, Mira lived off the coast of Minami in a little village known as Sulura. The village of Sulura wasn’t directly on the main land of Minami and thus had a rather lush appearance and decent flow of life. Between the vegetation and the islands natural habitat, life on this little village was quite easy. The people were friendly and everyone was like family. Every so often, some of their village’s men would leave to go to the mainland of Minami in hopes of finding other goods they couldn’t get here. Due to this, there were crazy stories about the wildlife. Sulura wasn’t a very big island so it very rarely had any run-ins with monsters; however, the entire mainland of Minami was normally crawling with creatures. The village men sometimes wouldn’t come back with everyone that left, but all in all the lifestyle on Sulura was rather simple.
Mira had grown up rather easily with her parents and fellow villagers. To her they were all one big family. She, much like the other children, found a fascination in the stories from the other continents and wished to venture there some day, though they didn’t have much in terms of education here. Some of the village elders would try to teach what they knew, but there wasn’t much to go on. Most of the children would speak well enough, but reading wasn’t quite perfect, some words were identifiable though.

Incident:Back on the mainland of Minami, the earth began to tremble as the top of the Minami volcano began to smoke. The little village of Sulura thought nothing of it as any other time this had happened, it never actually went anywhere. After good twenty or so minutes, the volcano began to erupt as lava began to slither its way down the mountain burning everything in its path. Even though it was coming towards the village, the village elders though nothing of it, since they had the water in between them. With the speed and sheer around the lava began to flow into the water and solidify creating a rocky bridge heading straight for the island. As it neared, panic finally ensued as the people wondered desperately what to do. The elders began to move what they believed would slow the flow down. With rocks, wood and random larger items moved towards the flow of lava, the result be to be expected. The items and the elders, who didn’t bother to move, were instantly ignited and began to burn into the lava itself.

The lava began to engulf everything that it touched causing many people to die who weren’t able to get away in time, or simply refused to move. Watching as her father was the first to go down, the young Mira ran forward and cried out “stop!” and threw her hands forward causing a fire to ignite from her fingertips as the flow of lava redirected at the direction she had pushed. Confused at what happened, but desperate to save her people she pushed her hands out once more and held her determination as the lava moved in that direction. Gritting her teeth, she felt her feet dig into the sand beneath her. Behind her, her mother cried out to get to the docks to evacuate.

The village didn’t have a large dock seeing as how it was a small village. In fact, they only had three boats. As the people of Sulura began to flood towards the docks, Mira tried to hold the best she could watching as the lava caught the foliage of the village on fire and begin to spread. Unknown to how she was even managing to do such magic, she noticed the flow of lava was starting to sway back towards her. It was becoming hard to hold the redirection of lava. She felt her body quiver as she felt herself weaken.

“Mira! Come on! “ the voice of her mother yelled behind her. With one last push, she turned on her heels and sprinted for the docks before all but diving into one of them as the three boats floated out to sea.

As the three boats left the shore, all should have been fine, but they weren’t floating towards Minami, they were floating out to sea. The next two days of floating was treacherous, as it seemed that nature itself was not found of them being out at sea. The first day the sun was harsh and caused a good amount of dehydration, but as the rain began to fall, they quickly realized the waves were much too fierce. They lost one boat that night. The night day was full of sorrow as the remaining people felt there was nothing they could do during that time but yell and cry. The day passed by slowly as they found themselves all but broiling under the sun. That night was hot, much hotter than the day. There were no extra storms or crazy waves; instead, it was stifling, humid, temperature. That night they lost half of their people to heat stroke and dehydration.
The third day rolled around as they finally saw some form of land. They weren’t sure where they were about to end up, but they couldn’t be happier to finally find something. After a few hours, they finally hit landfall and made the discovery they were on a desert wasteland. This, of course, caused some panic because water and food would be a problem. With nowhere else to go, they got off their boats, destroyed them for the materials, and ventured off to find somewhere to start a new home. They wandered in the desert for days before they finally found a place to live, however they had lost many of their people. Ten remained and it was barely enough to even start a place to live, but they managed. The little town of Konoko was built as their only hope, but that wasn’t all that had happened. During the process of building, their home there was a mark discovered on Mira’s upper right thigh.

Current:Getting her hero’s mark early one wasn’t necessarily a good thing. Her people were aware that she had it, and at first, they saw it as a symbol of hope, but throughout their time in the town of Konoko, they had grown reliant. Once Konoko actually held enough places to live, the remaining men immediately tried to make sure she knew how to fight, they were obsessed with her using her father’s sword and wanted to make sure she was well ready. At the age of ten, she had killed her first monster. It was yet another hot night, and the elders had insisted there would be an attack from yet another scorpion or worm like beast. Due to this, they had forced Mira to stand guard. As they had believe, a giant dune worm had showed up and managed to destroy their walls and get some of the spike embedded within its course skin. The people of Konoko didn’t even try to go after it, they expected Mira to, and as a younger girl wanting to please her tribe, and she did. The battle was quite brutal but the end was the same. She had taken down the worm, though with much blood and many marks to prove it. This only furthered her tribes want to rely on her. As she grew older, she was the line of defense between Konoko and any monster. If one showed up, she was called on to kill it. If there was a problem the village decided was huge enough for her, she had to solve it. Missing person? Go tell Mira. Running low on food? Go tell Mira. Cat stuck up a cactus. Go tell Mira. Soon everything that wasn’t perfect was Mira’s problem. One would believe her Mother would have stopped it, but she was just the same, needing her daughter to stop the very sky from falling.
As the horns of Kalahari boomed across the lands, the people of Konoko realized immediately what it was due to passed down storied from their old town. It was time for them to lose Mira. Instead of wishing her the best, and giving her amazing words of encouragement, her people went into a panic. For years they had relied on her for everything, how would they live without her. Panicked they all rioted and locked her away in her home with her Mother as they had determined she was not able to be a hero for anyone other than them. The day had passed and night was finally around, the people had mostly all gone to bed, leaving her home a little less guarded. Mira had already accepted her role as a hero, she knew it was her destiny to leave to cleanse the world, but she also knew what this would do for her people. With a heavy heart, she left her village of Konoko that night, journeying back to the ocean and traveling north to the known land of Teth’alla to begin her journey as the chosen hero.
